The Role of Crevices in Decreasing The Passivity of Titanium in Certain Solutions
Source abstract
Abstract
Crevices increase the tendency of titanium to corrode in certain solutions in which it normally is made passive by air. This increase in the corrosion rate occurs most consistently in air-saturated 1 N sulfuric and 1.6-1.75 N hydrochloric acid solutions. Corrosion is not confined to crevices but appears to be uniform over the entire surface. An explanation is presented. 3.6.2
